RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To report pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, clinical effect, and safety of intravenous (IV) golimumab in children with active polyarticular-course juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pcJIA) who participated in A Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Golimumab in Pediatric Participants With Active Polyarticular Course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Despite Methotrexate Therapy (GO-VIVA)'s open-label, long-term extension (LTE) through week 252. METHODS: GO-VIVA participants who continued IV golimumab (80 mg/m2 every 8 weeks) after week 52 were included. PK and safety were assessed through week 244 (last dose) and week 252, respectively, and clinical response through week 116. Clinical outcomes included JIA-American College of Rheumatology (ACR) responses and clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score in 10 joints (cJADAS10). Binary outcomes used nonresponder imputation, and other descriptive analyses used observed data. RESULTS: Of 112/127 (88.2%) participants entering the LTE, 69 completed the week 252 visit. Median steady-state trough golimumab concentrations were generally maintained from week 52 through week 244 (range 0.3-0.6 µg/mL). Antigolimumab antibody rates were consistent through week 52 (39.2% [49/125]) and week 244 (44.8% [56/125]). Week 52 JIA-ACR 30/50/70/90 response rates (75.6% [96/127], 74% [94/127], 65.4% [83/127], and 48.8% [62/127], respectively) were generally maintained through week 116 (72.4% [92/127], 71.7% [91/127], 63.8% [81/127], and 50.4% [64/127], respectively), when the median cJADAS10 was 1.6 and 56.7% (72/127) of participants achieved cJADAS10 ≤ 5 (minimal disease activity). Rates (per 100 patient-years) of serious adverse events and serious infections through week 252 were 7.7 and 3.9, respectively. CONCLUSION: GO-VIVA LTE participants experienced adequate PK exposure and stable safety and immunogenicity. The majority of participants experienced no more than minimal residual disease activity. Data suggest IV golimumab treatment provided durable clinical response through week 116, with an acceptable risk-benefit profile.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Depressive and anxiety symptoms are common in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE), yet their etiology and course remain unclear. We investigated the frequency of depressive and anxiety symptoms longitudinally in youth with cSLE, and associated socio-demographic and disease factors. METHODS: Participants 8-18 years with cSLE completed baseline measures [demographic questionnaire, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC), Screen for Childhood Anxiety Related Disorders (SCARED), and psychiatric interview] and follow-up measures (CES-DC and SCARED) > 6 months later. Prevalence of clinically significant depressive (score >15 on CES-DC) or anxiety symptoms (score ≥25 on SCARED) was calculated at baseline and follow-up. Baseline psychiatric interview diagnoses were tabulated. Relationships between socio-demographics (neighborhood-level material deprivation, ethnic concentration, adverse childhood event history, psychiatric condition in a first-degree relative), disease-related factors (disease duration, major organ disease, disease activity, glucocorticoid use, comorbid medical condition) and baseline depressive and anxiety scores, were examined in linear regression models. Factors with univariate associations with p < 0.2 were included in multivariable adjusted models. RESULTS: At baseline, of 51 participants with a mean disease duration of 4.3 years (SD 2.7), 35% (n = 18) and 35% (n = 18) had clinically significant depressive and anxiety symptoms, respectively. Anxiety disorder was diagnosed by psychiatric interview in 14% (n = 7), depressive disorders in 6% (n = 3), and post-traumatic stress disorder in 4% (n = 2). Adverse childhood events and first-degree relative with psychiatric condition were present in 40% (n = 20) and 37% (n = 18), respectively. In multivariable regression analysis, baseline depressive symptoms were positively correlated with neighbourhood-level material deprivation (ß = 4.2, 95% CI [1.0, 7.3], p = 0.01) and psychiatric condition in a first-degree relative (ß = 7.3, 95% CI [2.2, 12.4], p = 0.006). No associations were found between baseline anxiety scores and patient factors. At a median follow-up of 13.5 months (IQR 10.5, 18) for CES-DC (n = 34) and SCARED (n = 44), depressive and anxiety symptoms were persistent (18%, n = 6; 16%, n = 7), and newly present (24%, n = 8; 16% n = 7) at follow-up. CONCLUSION: In this sample, depressive and anxiety symptoms were prevalent and persistent. Depressive symptoms correlated with neighborhood-level material deprivation, and family psychiatric history. These findings support routine psychosocial assessment in cSLE, and provision of appropriate resources.

OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to characterize adolescent health and psychosocial issues in patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and evaluate demographic and disease characteristics associated with adolescent health. METHODS: We retrospectively examined adolescents aged 12 to 18 years with cSLE seen at the Hospital for Sick Children meeting the American College of Rheumatology/Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics classification criteria, assessed by adolescent medicine in the cSLE clinic between 2018 and 2020. Adolescent health issues were characterized using the Home, Education/Employment, Activities, Diet/Drugs, Sexuality, Suicide/mood (HEADDSS) framework. Issues were classified as presenting and/or identified; adolescent health burden was tabulated as the number of distinct adolescent issues per patient. Multiple Poisson regression models examined associations between patient and disease characteristics (age, sex, material deprivation, disease activity, disease damage, and high-dose glucocorticoid exposure) and adolescent health issues. RESULTS: A total of 108 (60%) of 181 adolescents with cSLE were seen by adolescent medicine, with a median of 2 (interquartile range [IQR] 1-3) visits and a median of 2 (IQR 1-5) adolescent health issues during the study period. Common issues were mood (presenting in 21% vs identified in 50%), sleep (27% vs 2%), school and education (26% vs 1%), and nonadherence (23% vs 8%). Psychoeducation was provided by adolescent medicine to 54% of patients. High-dose glucocorticoids (risk ratio [RR] 1.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.41-2.35, P < 0.001), material deprivation (RR 1.17, 95% CI 1.04-1.30, P = 0.007), and lower SLE Disease Activity Index scores (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.92-0.98, P = 0.004) were associated with higher adolescent health burden. CONCLUSION: Adolescents with cSLE experience many adolescent issues, especially low mood. High-dose glucocorticoids and social marginalization are associated with greater adolescent health burden. This study highlights the importance of addressing adolescent health needs as part of routine care.
